yes, it is the same
It's a semantic thing - by definition, if something gives out radiation, then it is radioactive. If an element gives off radiation, then it is a 'radioactive' element. If it does not give out radiation, then it is not 'radioactive'.
Beta
The release of radioactive substances in the atmosphere leads to radioactive pollution. Only the radioactive wastes cause the radioactive pollution. Nuclear material is pure and they are not the factor for causing radioactive pollution. The waste discarded improperly only causes radioactive pollution.The following causes the radioactive pollution in high rangeNuclear power plantsCoal fired power plantsUranium plantsThe above said power plants release radioactive wastes to the atmosphere. During their release or transportation of radioactive wastes, the radioactive pollution occurs.
Patients receiving internal radiation therapy do become temporarily radioactive
Patients receiving interstitial radiation do become temporarily radioactive
Patients receiving intracavitary radiation do become temporarily radioactive
we can stop this pollution by throwing booms.
Water pollution
Radiation is emitted from the sun to the Earth as short-wavelength radiation. It is also the energy that is released from a nucleus as it breaks-up, when the nuclear force acting on the nucleus is not enough to hold it together.
